### Summary
The conflict instigated by the antagonist, Hyunjae, escalates as Taehwan’s jealousy boils over in a dramatic and comedic outburst. Consumed by rage, Taehwan physically stomps on and destroys a box of cupcakes intended for Yeonwu, an act readers found to be a hilarious, cathartic, and "unhinged" release of his pent-up frustration. In a subsequent display of possessive pettiness, Taehwan then buys a replacement box of sweets for Yeonwu himself, reinforcing his territorial stance. Throughout this tantrum, Dojin serves as a crucial supporting character, acting as a "pacifier" and a sounding board for Taehwan's venting, a cameo appearance that longtime readers greatly appreciated. While the "pastry violence" provided a temporary outlet, the chapter highlights that the core issue of miscommunication between Taehwan and Yeonwu remains unresolved, leaving readers to stress the urgent need for the couple to talk before the situation deteriorates further.
